*************************************************************** * SEDS-discuss : Discussion of Anything SEDS or Space-Related * *************************************************************** Hello All, Thank you for your on going support for the SEDSat-1 (SO-33) satellite program. We at the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) would like to thank you all. If you have any suggestion how this program can be improved please send in your comments. We are evaluating the current status of the entire program. With your help gathering SEDSat telemetry has been a great success. We have accumulated over 18,000 lines of telemetry and we are looking to continue receiving it. The telemetry can be accessed through the SEDSat database (see the UAH-SEDS website <http://uah.seds.org/projects/sedsat/>). Chris Lewicki dutifully kept the database updated for over a year. He deserves a great amount of thanks. The solar panel data as well as the battery data is very useful. A graduate student, Daniel Slosberg, is currently conducting a comprehensive study of the data. He is studying the efficiency of the solar panels and the durability of the batteries. Your help in gathering the telemetry has greatly helped our ability to accumulate such a great amount of data. We are looking forward to your continued support in gathering the data. Being that SEDSat has been a fairly successful student built satellite we would like to continue gathering as much of her telemetry as possible. If you can suggest ways we can achieve this goal please let us know. As you may know SEDSat is not receiving Tx, but her telemetry package can be received on 437.910 MHz. To be able to decipher the data you will need to download the most recent copy of the ground station software, SGS 20 <http://uah.seds.org/projects/sedsat/SGS20.zip>. Please see the SEDSat main page for a more complete description of the software, <http://uah.seds.org/projects/sedsat/>. If you are receiving SEDSat telemetry please send it to <telemetry@seds.org>. Take care all and good luck to your continuing amateur radio adventures. Please let me know if you have any difficult with the SEDSAT website and the database. Please see the below for and example for the database. Sincerely, Jason Rupert UAH-SEDS Huntsville, AL (256)722-8028 rupertj@email.uah.edu ================================================================= SEDSat Database Example One: select Time, SolarPanel0 from telemetry where SolarPanel0 > 0 and SolarPanel0 < 1000 order by Time SEDSat Database Example Two: SELECT avg(SolarPanel0) from telemetry where SolarPanel0 > 0 and SolarPanel0 < 1000 ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
